Tone Deaf
[:[00:00:09] Frank Roll: Blockbuster, Hollywood and the independent video store
[:[00:00:22] Scott Moran: Does this hold up? And just, what the hell is a good movie? Anyway, I'm Frank Roll. I'm Scott Moran and we
[:[00:00:31] Scott Moran: What? I saw it equal dead rise. Yeah. You don't have to act like you didn't already hear me talk about it. I
[:[00:00:40] Scott Moran: you saying that that's the good thing about you is I can tell you stories twice.
[:[00:00:49] Frank Roll: so it wasn't quite the same as the other one. Like it didn't have the same feel.
[:[00:01:02] Scott Moran: That's what I consider a good evil dead movie to be was like kind of three stooges and it has those like, oh, it's silly and then it scares me a little bit, you know? And that's what I like about it. But this one was just a good horror movie, not necessarily scary. Little gross.
[:[00:01:22] Scott Moran: Just about. Yeah. About. Cool. Yeah. At least, I mean, it had the, so there's something about an Evil dead movie that is unique. Mm-hmm. And that is, there's a little bit of setup and then it just cranks all the way to the end of the movie. It had that, which I think is good. It just didn't have the moments of levity that I wanted to make.
[:[00:01:59] Frank Roll: going on Amazon.
[:[00:02:04] Scott Moran: rocket. Honestly, I'd pay $25 for admission to a movie if you gave me the DVD at the movie like a DVD com. Not even like a Blu-ray, not even a Blu-ray. Just give me some physical low cost copy of the movie. Or a download code. Once you've seen it, you get it.
[:[00:02:42] Scott Moran: Honestly. My least favorite is the very first one, cuz that's the one that. Isn't this self-aware? Yeah, the, they weren't quite on track yet. Yeah, but I don't think that this was a sequel to the Ash movies by any means. It was like a different avenue, different Necronomicon maybe, or it was a sequel to the remake, which is fine too, cuz I liked that.
[:[00:03:09] Frank Roll: for it. It's
[:[00:03:28] Scott Moran: It reeks. Wasn't there something where like a sports team was called the wreaking havocs? Oh shit. I don't know. I don't, I don't, I've never, it's ringing a bell. Ringing a bell, ringing a bell. Nothing else really notable though. No, I'm excited about the Alien TV series. Yes. I read a whole bunch of stuff about that.
[:[00:03:52] Frank Roll: I know, but I was like really being in the moment like we were back in time.
[:[00:03:56] Frank Roll: Like, you gotta get in character, man. I mean, I, I didn't see anything exciting. I, uh, I went to sleep watching Tiger King again, because I have problems.
[:[00:04:11] Scott Moran: I've told you this before, but Kelly has come to not trust you. Really? Yeah. Like the things you watch, she's like, uh, I'm suspicious Tiger King. I mean, she will never watch Tiger King.
[:[00:04:26] Frank Roll: but no, I mean Cher Noble, it's just a well done
[:[00:04:32] Frank Roll: watch all the documentaries about the depressing shit. It's just how I roll, man. But then I, I also watched an oldie booted goody biodome. Oh yeah. Biodome
[:[00:04:42] Frank Roll: Polly Shore man, he was really on top of the world there for a minute.
[:[00:04:49] Frank Roll: head it is. And you know, like that main, that main guy who's like running the facility, isn't he the bad guy from uh, real genius. Yes. It is, right? Oh, yes. Because he was like that guy in
[:[00:05:02] Scott Moran: Yeah, Ghostbusters. That's his name. The straw man of Al Strawman. Yeah. He's just, he's just doing his job actually. Uh, yeah. Ginger have ever talked about that with you, with, in Ghostbusters. Walter Peck's an asshole, but he's not fucking wrong.
[:[00:05:21] Scott Moran: the Environmental Protection Agency? Yeah. These guys don't have permits for this shit.
[:[00:05:27] Scott Moran: nuclear. Yeah, he's straw man. Doesn't deserve to be burned the way he does other than being a dick. You don't be a dick in a sci-fi universe. Real
[:[00:05:38] Scott Moran: kind of an asshole for no reason in everything.
[:[00:05:51] Frank Roll: had the blonde chick from the Kevin Smith movies and Dazed and
[:[00:05:55] Frank Roll: remember her name. I still don't remember her name, but she's in a lot of stuff.
[:[00:06:02] Scott Moran: Uh, I think she might be in a Kevin Smith movie, like maybe Jay and Silent Bob a reboot. She was in it. Okay for a second. I don't know.
[:[00:06:14] Scott Moran: Yeah, there really are. What was the uncle or her stepdad?
[:[00:06:21] Frank Roll: Yeah, he was in a lot of stuff. Um,
[:[00:06:26] Frank Roll: Yeah, he does. And, but not really a lisp. Well, and he is kind of like racially ambiguous, you know what I mean? Yes. Like is, you know, you're just like, wow, what is, you know, it doesn't matter.
[:[00:06:43] Scott Moran: Dude, was his name Russell in that? Was it Russell? I
[:[00:06:49] Scott Moran: man. I've seen that movie
[:[00:06:55] Frank Roll: He goes along for the car ride. And you know what?
[:[00:07:00] Frank Roll: Yeah. With the Nose Pros. Mm-hmm. He's got the nose prosthesis. Yeah, it's
[:[00:07:11] Frank Roll: things. John Candy plays like the cop of the oil pit town and his sister is also played by John Candy and he does the dual role and she's creepy as fuck.
[:[00:07:22] Scott Moran: need to re-watch nothing but trouble. Nothing but like trouble soon. Is super classy. I wonder if that's streaming anywhere. Kinda makes me wanna watch Canadian Bacon,
[:[00:07:34] Scott Moran: three times. I can't remember watching it a whole lot.
[:[00:07:45] Frank Roll: Clifford is so awkward.
[:[00:07:47] Frank Roll: I rented that as a kid. Um, Yeah, cuz it's got that guy is the dad from Beethoven? Yeah,
[:[00:07:57] Frank Roll: Oh man. Does that have Mary Steam Burgeon?
[:[00:08:03] Frank Roll: say Mary St.
[:[00:08:09] Frank Roll: I know for a lot of things our slur put some sugar into. I like to say Mary Steam Virgin. What's eating Gilbert Grape. It's like maybe I could find a way to tie in what's eating Gilbert Grape to everything we talk about too, instead of just promoting Pop
[:[00:08:23] Scott Moran: I think you should.
[:[00:08:29] Scott Moran: It's got Justin Timberlake in it. Oh God. What's your favorite poly shore movie? It would be
[:[00:08:38] Scott Moran: never think of in the Army now, but I did like that one when I was a kid. It's got Andy Dick in it too.
[:[00:08:45] Scott Moran: And Lori Petty and David Allen Greer your crush. Yeah. From a League of their own. Uh, you know, you like her in, uh, station 11. This
[:[00:09:06] Frank Roll: The end of that movie is a Madonna song in the score. During the credits. Man, it's a fucking tear. It's on Netflix right now. And I'm like, why are you looking at me? A league of their own? Like, why are you looking at me?
[:[00:09:21] Frank Roll: I said,
[:[00:09:25] Scott Moran: Just, just say it out loud. When you called me, I was like, no,
[:[00:09:47] Frank Roll: I hope people appreciate it. You know, it's based on a true story.
[:[00:10:01] Frank Roll: I'm telling you. When I say a league of their own is something special to me. It's something spec. What other eight year old do you know that rents that on purpose for his birthday party? I don't Bingo. There. We nuff said Nuff said. I guess Nuff said No, I'm not watching the show. Sorry, what is that? Amazon Prime Original?
[:[00:10:25] Scott Moran: are. But yeah, bear with us everybody because we're. Dumb asses and we didn't record. Actually the computer froze this time. It wasn't our fault. It was, we were, we were
[:[00:10:36] Frank Roll: At some point in there we lost my audio.
[:[00:10:43] Frank Roll: Yeah. It almost looked like it was doing it then. Somehow it disappeared. But your
[:[00:10:48] Frank Roll: was not. It's like in one of those movies where they freeze the security footage and then they do stuff, or like in toys and Robin Williams pops up the screen.
[:[00:10:56] Scott Moran: everybody bear with us if we, because we're kind of doing this again, we didn't finish the episode per se, but we got really far and we were really excited about this. Super excited about this thing. Still don't fucking trust it. It's gonna
[:[00:11:09] Scott Moran: it started over paranoid. It didn't start over.
[:[00:11:24] Frank Roll: Yeah. And this all started, you brought it up. We watched a preview.
[:[00:11:37] Scott Moran: talk about this. Still. I wish I'd watched it again.
[:[00:11:58] Scott Moran: To self-reflect Olive rents a fancy country home from a widower named Harvey. Harvey's son thinks he has dementia and wants to put him in a home, and though he has lived a. Full life. He desires the thrill of killing someone before he deteriorates completely. After Googling Olive and deeming her a prime example of what's wrong with her generation, he begins to muster the courage to kill her while Olive wrestles with her problems.
[:[00:12:37] Scott Moran: Full body. Long Johns tone
[:[00:12:54] Frank Roll: As far as starting points go, it makes total sense. Tone deaf stars Amanda, crew is Olive T 1000. Robert Patrick is Harvey Ronnie Jean Blevins is David Harvey's son Haley Marie Norman is Lenore Olive's friend Kim Delaney is Crystal Olive's mom, Johnny Pemberton is Uriah Crystal's, uh, uh, friend. And uh, Ray Wise is Michael Olive's dad.
[:[00:13:21] Scott Moran: uh, he'll always beat Twin Peaks, Leland to me. Yeah. Twin Peaks, his hair
[:[00:13:33] Scott Moran: about to scream all the time, you know, he never does.
[:[00:13:41] Frank Roll: He would, he has that face. Yes, that's his face when it opens the face
[:[00:13:49] Frank Roll: Well, it's not what I meant to apply. Um, and Tate Ellington is James, a dude that Olive tries to pick up at a bar and ends up being a very interesting person. Yes, he does. It's, uh, yeah, the movie has a 44% tomato meter score, a 33% audience score, and a 4.9 out of 10 on imdb making it a.
[:[00:14:30] Frank Roll: Amanda Cruz stated in an interview that she read the script as a horror movie and thought it was bad. But after watching Bates' other movies, she realized that she approached the script the wrong way and loved it on the second reading. So coming to this movie with the right frame is key. Yeah,
[:[00:14:52] Scott Moran: Excision. Oh
[:[00:14:54] Scott Moran: And those were great. Were they? But if you have no prior knowledge of this guy mm-hmm. You walk into this movie with the wrong, like you're like, this is gonna be a slasher movie. Mm-hmm. It is not. It's kind of just a comedy. Yeah. I mean, there was a lot going on, some random ass people in this movie too.
[:[00:15:18] Scott Moran: suicide cold open is what I would call it. The, the suicide cold
[:[00:15:24] Scott Moran: in the background In Dead Leland?
[:[00:15:31] Frank Roll: Oh, really? Yeah. The one in the kitchen, the one that calls her later in the movie. Oh, right. Yeah. That guy was one, one of the IT guys in the office. Yes.
[:[00:15:46] Frank Roll: is though.
[:[00:15:50] Scott Moran: it a lot. I was at first, then I watched it and Jake Johnson cracks me the fuck up. I got on board. Zoe Dashel or Zoe Des Chanel, I think de Chanel. Bones' sister. That's like the most old man thing I've ever said. Kim Delaney being in this was weird from N Y P D Blue cuz that's what just the only place I think I've ever noticed her being, I'm not familiar with her work.
[:[00:16:24] Frank Roll: Bobby was Marge Hellen Berger and Tommy Knockers. She
[:[00:16:33] Frank Roll: gotten to say Marge Hellen Berger and Mary St. Burgeon.
[:[00:16:46] Scott Moran: And then I was like, oh, right. I don't know why. I didn't know Immediately.
[:[00:16:53] Scott Moran: Yeah. Her interactions with Johnny Pemberton are. Hilarious. Fucking loved it. Johnny Pemberton is older than us. Is he British? Looks like a child. No. Pemberton? No. I think I, I may have told you this before, but he's where I got my dealing with customer service skills.
[:[00:17:33] Scott Moran: I don't have to deal with cable companies anymore, but I have gotten free shit quite a bit. Yeah. Thanks to Johnny Pemberton. Okay. Yeah, cuz he helped Duncan Trussel get his internet turned on and that's how he got him like free internet for a year. But you just like, you start off like frustrated and then you just get sad.
[:[00:17:56] Frank Roll: I mean, this is one of those movies, like I said, the first scene kind of scared me cuz I was like, well I don't know if I'm gonna like the quality of this. The whole kitchen interaction between Olive and the guys she was about to break up with
[:[00:18:11] Frank Roll: Not even like less than.
[:[00:18:15] Frank Roll: even like, like it was gonna be a bad one.
[:[00:18:23] Frank Roll: about right. All right. I don't know, but that might even be, anyway, it didn't turn out to be that it wasn't bad. I enjoyed
[:[00:18:33] Scott Moran: That would've scared you a lot more. If I had been like, you should watch this movie. Mm-hmm. I know that you would've watched about 20 minutes of it and you would've been like, nah. But I gave that one a chance and in the end it won me over. And I think that going into this with that idea that this is really silly and it's gonna be a little silly, but I thought that this fucking movie was super consistent with what it was.
[:[00:19:01] Frank Roll: like there's a direct comparison, but I always bring up Jennifer's body as a good example. Like I feel like when they were making that movie, they knew like the level of movie it was going to be. And I feel like that was present here as well. Like they, they rolled with the punches, man.
[:[00:19:17] Scott Moran: No, this seemed more financed than his other. Yeah.
[:[00:19:32] Frank Roll: Like the IT guy when she's getting fired, it's by Little Fa.
[:[00:19:40] Frank Roll: one of her like friends goes to. Fuck. Like during the girls' night, right after she gets
[:[00:19:53] Scott Moran: I'm not real interested in watching. She was on 9 0 2 1. Oh the remake. Oh, okay.
[:[00:20:00] Scott Moran: I think it was a cameo. Cool. Because she was in that and she was, had like fake acne scars. That's random.
[:[00:20:08] Frank Roll: Sweet Cornrows made me think of Hustle and Flow. Penn Uck anyway.
[:[00:20:16] Frank Roll: and I'm sorry. I'll either call her Crossroads or
[:[00:20:29] Frank Roll: Oh,
[:[00:20:54] Scott Moran: But a little loose. A little loose one. You could tell he was like kinda struggling with it. Do you think he really had dementia or do you think his son was just like this fucking
[:[00:21:10] Frank Roll: Yeah. Maybe. Maybe, I don't know, I'm thinking maybe not dementia, but maybe sort of like psychosis cuz
[:[00:21:31] Scott Moran: That shit is terrifying. Ah.
[:[00:21:36] Scott Moran: don't go to bed. That couch, she falls asleep on when she first gets to the house, di kind of old school, and it's too
[:[00:21:47] Scott Moran: little, like such a big house. So many pieces of furniture you could probably go to sleep on.
[:[00:21:52] Frank Roll: close to what I'd call like a show couch, you know, more for decoration.
[:[00:21:59] Frank Roll: in a little bay window area? Kind of. It was right. Like maybe some bookshelves on the side. Apparently. That's what
[:[00:22:03] Scott Moran: It was like a historic house that burnt down and they built it exactly the same. Ooh. So it was like new. But
[:[00:22:11] Scott Moran: cedar, it's, it's got all this furniture. We got it. The antique throat show. We want it to be
[:[00:22:22] Scott Moran: why did Robert Patrick live in a fucking hut?
[:[00:22:27] Frank Roll: with the fucking like 98 computer. Like that computer. The screen was, wasn't it like a big old like gray monitor? Like back in the day with like the whole, it was like a lay down tower underneath the desktop was
[:[00:22:46] Scott Moran: He lives in like a, like the Alamo.
[:[00:22:56] Frank Roll: Oh dude. He was wearing some Agnes skin. Wasn't that an Agnes? That was it, right? I think so. I
[:[00:23:08] Frank Roll: friend of the family housekeeper, she said friend of the family or something like that. I'm a friend of theirs, but this the realest lady in this, well, there's that one spot, like later on when he is like, she's dead and he is looking, he's like, wipe that smirk off your face.
[:[00:23:26] Scott Moran: You, uh, like the fourth wall breaking, or was that So that
[:[00:23:36] Frank Roll: When the
[:[00:23:47] Frank Roll: Well, but that's situational and that works. You know what I
mean?
[:[00:23:59] Frank Roll: some dark web shit?
[:[00:24:02] Scott Moran: downloads. I'm not gonna lie, I don't know the difference between the dark web and the regular web. So many webs, who knows where I am. Cer, but I did think he was making a video. That's what it seemed like. Like some old man on YouTube. I didn't
[:[00:24:18] Frank Roll: I was like, man, this could go either way. But they did it. They did it well.
[:[00:24:23] Frank Roll: It was well done. But yeah, I mean, that's a good question. Like was he really crazy? I think he really was losing his shit. Maybe not dementia, but I think he really was losing
[:[00:24:31] Scott Moran: Robert Patrick was really good in this role though. All of his improvise, his little improvised lines. Then I heard about in interviews when I was researching it, so many good ones serve him a truly temple. And he's like, don't hold back on the cherries. But Amanda crew was saying she wanted to do this cuz she felt like she played the same straight laced girl all the time.
[:[00:25:06] Frank Roll: a little lost
[:[00:25:09] Frank Roll: car wash was great. My
[:[00:25:17] Scott Moran: So dirty
[:[00:25:21] Scott Moran: some shit like that. I appreciate that it was acid and it wasn't, it would've been in a different movie if it had been like, Something, something.
[:[00:25:33] Frank Roll: I think so. So I'm like it couldn't have been weed. Cuz like they can get that, I mean really they can get it all now. Well not acid, but the shrooms. Right? Because part of me had like a shrooms vibe from the car wash chick. Yeah. Maybe they're out there, somebody's got a greenhouse or like an old trailer home.
[:[00:26:07] Frank Roll: The spores just start growing.
[:[00:26:15] Frank Roll: fucking easiest things you can do, man.
[:[00:26:19] Frank Roll: It it, and when it comes in a kit, it comes in a kit. With instructions, and if you do it right, you get a couple different batches, potencies less and less each time, but you get batches.
[:[00:26:57] Scott Moran: And we just let it soak. Then we poured out the grape juice and it grew mold and we poured more grape juice in it. And supposedly every time the mold grows in there and you pour more grape juice in the fungus becomes a part of the grape juice. And then you drink it and every time you add more, it gets stronger and stronger.
[:[00:27:22] Frank Roll: to me. I remember I tried it a couple times when you were trying to make absent.
[:[00:27:31] Frank Roll: I remember once I drank, some of you were like, wait, we shouldn't have drank that one. Drink this one, or some shit like that.
[:[00:27:38] Scott Moran: with that one? I think we made one with ever clear, and that was the problem.
[:[00:27:46] Scott Moran: I think we just didn't know what we were doing. We didn't know how strong it was.
[:[00:28:03] Frank Roll: But this one, uh, it's fu when she first gets, the way he creeps around and everything like that.
[:[00:28:17] Scott Moran: to that a little bit, didn't you? It touched my sweet spot,
[:[00:28:21] Scott Moran: spot. Fucking water all over the
[:[00:28:24] Frank Roll: Yeah, but he, he thought about it even though he was like, I'm gonna fuck with this chick.
[:[00:28:33] Frank Roll: around. Yeah. I di at the time I didn't know that that was like a foreshadowing situation.
[:[00:28:42] Scott Moran: I thought that it was gonna be like a thing where she never noticed he was doing any of this stuff. That he had been stalking her and that she was gonna float right through this weekend with nothing happening. Get home and find
[:[00:28:59] Frank Roll: I thought it would've popped up beforehand and just like, she would've been like, what the fuck? Like, I thought it would've been just like another like weird thing about the weekend. You know, because I mean, later what his son walks in while she's sleeping.
[:[00:29:13] Frank Roll: Airbnb experience. No. Tone-Deaf Movie.
[:[00:29:19] Scott Moran: I'm telling you, the, all these movies about Airbnb's gone wrong lately, has made me wanna stay in a hotel like a br, like a hotel, like a fucking Hilton.
[:[00:29:31] Frank Roll: Not bad. And you know me, I've got this weird thing right. Like in shrinking. It's hard for me to sit inside my outside clothes. Yeah.
[:[00:29:46] Frank Roll: Yeah. Hotels really, I just checked for bedbugs, you know, like I lifted the comforter, looked in the corners for bedbugs.
[:[00:29:56] Scott Moran: fine. You think the, the bed is bad. You just see the curtain. Dude, after I leave,
[:[00:30:12] Frank Roll: That's badass. I don't know if they could see me, but there was like a highway right there and the windows were open. I went to shut 'em and I was like kind of posed for a minute. I was like, little rock, take that. I forgot all about that until this moment. I mean that's, I hadn't remembered it since the trip.
[:[00:30:33] Scott Moran: Yeah. But yeah, that's right. An Airbnb does not seem as appealing to me anymore.
[:[00:30:45] Scott Moran: case that I'm renting this from?
[:[00:30:50] Frank Roll: there always these little, I mean, I know there's an owner's closet, but these little rooms in the movies got me fucked up, dude. I'm
[:[00:31:08] Scott Moran: I just still didn't like that there was an area of the house I couldn't see get to inside. I don't like that man.
[:[00:31:24] Frank Roll: So this maintenance guy was smoking like a condo, owner's weed. Whenever he needed weed. I mean, the guy looks, yeah, the guy was like, like the maintenance guy enough to be like, Hey man, there's a key here. If you ever need a bowl, it's in that closet
[:[00:31:37] Frank Roll: guy. Yeah. And this was a maintenance guy who smoked out of a socket pipe, real
[:[00:31:43] Scott Moran: Uh, this is kind of doubling back, but once you went to the bar and that, uh,
[:[00:31:48] Scott Moran: James. James, yes. Who was in the endless, he was, I, I think he might have been the cult leader. I can't remember real well. Yeah, but Morehead and Benson, shout out Morehead and Benson. I, I can't fucking believe that it went to that place where Robert Patrick had gone up to the door and like forced his way in and it ended up being, he was a fucking serial
[:[00:32:10] Frank Roll: When he was at the bar with Olive, there was a news story about the missing girl. Yeah, I didn't even see that. Yeah. So I knew it would tie in, but I didn't really guess right away that James was the kidnapper. You know what I mean? But then it was fucked up, dude. Her eyes were so shut. And her mouth. And her mouth because I was like, are they just really bruised? Tone-Deaf Movie.
[:[00:32:39] Scott Moran: reinforced for me too that maybe Olive was not going to notice anything happened. Like Robert Patrick was gonna keep her from being murdered on accident
[:[00:32:50] Frank Roll: Yeah, cuz where my mind went with that was, And I think that's what you're saying. If all this shit happened around her, but not to her, and then she never knew. Right.
[:[00:33:08] Frank Roll: Well, it's like at the beginning of this one when like the mom was getting dressed and the dad was on the bed before he killed himself. I went off on a whole thing just assuming that that was like a hooker and he was missing the recital because he was fucking a hooker. And then he killed himself. And then, but like as it was happening, I was like, oh, that's just her mom getting ready.
[:[00:33:32] Scott Moran: that's really far. Yeah.
[:[00:33:35] Scott Moran: That was like maybe 30 seconds into the movie. It
[:[00:33:40] Scott Moran: And already you were
[:[00:33:48] Scott Moran: I saw him sitting there, I was like, That guy's gonna kill himself. He's Leland being Leland didn't help your situation there.
[:[00:34:01] Frank Roll: Well, and then in the bag, do you think it was supposed to be body parts or clothing? Tone-Deaf Movie.
[:[00:34:11] Frank Roll: Well, and I don't think hefty makes him that strong like a human body. Like there's density, there's mass there,
[:[00:34:17] Scott Moran: But I do think they, I implied that he. Like eviscerated him and and
[:[00:34:24] Scott Moran: Yeah. So it would make sense if they were doing that. Maybe he just took his, like his head and like left the torso, his hands and stuff. Yeah. Took the appendages.
[:[00:34:47] Scott Moran: Creepy shit. But yeah, maybe that's what Robert Patrick did. I thought it was his clothes and then I thought also that it was gonna come up again cuz he threw it in like a dry riverbed. Yeah. Where a homeless guy was staying. Mm-hmm.
[:[00:35:02] Scott Moran: Her acid trip was pretty good.
[:[00:35:23] Frank Roll: Trip. That's crazy. So yeah, she was on a journey and they got those guys like dual
[:[00:35:33] Frank Roll: somehow. Somehow because it's his dementia psychosis mixed with her
[:[00:35:44] Scott Moran: Mm-hmm. Maybe he was projecting all of her exes and, and when she's
[:[00:35:59] Scott Moran: Always. I
[:[00:36:04] Frank Roll: Fuck Robert Patrick though. Then he finds the tomahawk goes on a night hike. Where did he
[:[00:36:13] Frank Roll: when? There was a picture of them on like a road trip back in the day, like I feel like his. Son was a little kid, or maybe the little kid in the picture was him as a little kid and it was his parents and it was from like a roadside attraction even further back in time.
[:[00:36:38] Scott Moran: I genuinely like the exchange they have when they finally have the, we have the end showdown.
[:[00:37:07] Frank Roll: Well, and it, he changed her clothes, man.
[:[00:37:11] Frank Roll: You know, like he knocks her out after the kitchen exchange that had the groovy song playing and he threatens to wash her mouth out with soap. She wakes up from being knocked out and she's wearing the dress that his wife killed himself in.
[:[00:37:35] Scott Moran: blood probably smells funny, matter what he says at that point.
[:[00:37:54] Frank Roll: all I'm saying.
[:[00:38:10] Scott Moran: I really liked when, uh, the sun happens in and helps them with their flat tire.
[:[00:38:16] Frank Roll: And you, you start to think maybe this is, this is something else.
[:[00:38:28] Frank Roll: It was perfect. That's exactly how that should have gone down. It was
[:[00:38:39] Frank Roll: So, you know, it's just that much more pushing old Harvey over the edge. Cuz you know Harvey was old school at heart.
[:[00:38:52] Frank Roll: Fucking boomers. Like it came around from his fucking
[:[00:38:59] Scott Moran: Mm-hmm. I'm full of shit. You're full of shit. We're all full of shit. We all have this like baggage of the time. We grew up in thinking that it was better than the time that is happening now. It's not. Right now is always better.
[:[00:39:19] Frank Roll: I used to do model rockets. Then I'm like, oh shit. That's how they're gonna spread the ashes, which is goofy as fuck. Didn't work out either. Didn't work out either. But then I was watching the credits cuz it was one of those walk off and they do turn around and look at it, but nothing else happens. But I was like, wait, what else could happen at this point with this one?
[:[00:39:35] Scott Moran: like this movie enough to wait to see. I
[:[00:39:40] Scott Moran: though I don't like that. Don't do after the credit shit. Well,
[:[00:39:48] Scott Moran: Yeah, this does not deserve that. This was very fun. This was super fun movie. If you read all the reviews of this movie mm-hmm.
[:[00:40:18] Scott Moran: Same with Olive. She was full of shit too. Well,
[:[00:40:29] Scott Moran: little touch. This was very detailed. Mm-hmm. And he deserves lots of credit for how much thought went into something so silly.
[:[00:40:50] Scott Moran: Yeah. But I think that the, the like humor of this movie felt of like a nineties time almost. Like a brand new cherry flavor captured it perfectly and is infinitely more absurd.
[:[00:41:06] Frank Roll: think you can move around where things are in the queue.
[:[00:41:21] Scott Moran: No. I very much enjoyed it. And if you give it a chance and go and don't go into it thinking it's some sort of slasher movie or that it really is going to sell you on one side of a message or another. I think it's just kind of silly. Yeah. In a John Waters way, in a John Waters way, and he has a cameo in his other movie.
[:[00:41:39] Frank Roll: In this one it's, and and it's not full on John Waters?
[:[00:41:54] Frank Roll: Well, yeah. And I mean, they weren't afraid to get down on some of those bloody scenes.
[:[00:42:01] Scott Moran: It would've been the kind of movie that if I found out at the video store, I would've told 10 people to watch it and they would've, and maybe two of 'em would've come back and been like, oh yeah, I like that. Not in
[:[00:42:13] Scott Moran: out there.
[:[00:42:18] Frank Roll: that. I bet there's maybe one person I could have recommended that movie to that could have appreciated it for what it was. I'd say one at my video store, damnit Cedar Park.
[:[00:42:32] Frank Roll: either.
[:[00:42:41] Scott Moran: it really is, if you read the reviews, people bring so much baggage to the movie that they're like, I don't like that, or I don't like this.
[:[00:42:50] Frank Roll: like what, was there any of like, well that wasn't a horror movie.
[:[00:43:17] Scott Moran: Like how far back in someone's history can you go before you start feeling bad for them? And then you realize there's
[:[00:43:28] Scott Moran: life. But next time, men. Men, Alex Garland's, Menden,
[:[00:43:37] Frank Roll: Not men at work. Not men, simply men.
[:[00:43:44] Frank Roll: And if you know that I watched Cher Noble, Jesse Buckley, firefighter's wife,
[:[00:43:57] Frank Roll: Wear men. Manly Men wear Men in tights. Tight tights.
[:[00:44:04] Frank Roll: I have a white ones like the white one piece thing at home. Where are
